| description | Melastoma malabathricum (Melastomaceae) also known as senduduk among Malaysian is a small shrub with various medicinal uses. Research has been conducted to determine the levels of flavonoids and tannins in leaves of Melastoma
malabathricum using a variation of the concentration of ethanol. Concentration of ethanol used in this research are 30%, 50% and 70%. Levels of flavonoids in the sample
solution were calculated with Catechol Equivalent (CE) while the levels of tannins were calculated with Gallic Acid Equivalent (GAE). The results showed levels of flavonoids in leaves of Melastoma malabathricum with 30%, 50% and 70% ethanol were 0.47 mg CE/g ± 0.19, 0.57 mg CE/g ± 0.19, 70% and 1.68 mg CE/g ± 1.82 respectively. While the levels of tannins in Melastoma malabathricum leaves with
30%, 50% and 70% ethanol were 2.60 mg of GAE/g ± 0.01, 2.23 mg of GAE/g ± 0.14 and 1.28 mg of GAE/g ± 0.01 respectively. This result were significant at p<0.05.
This result will be very helpful as a guidance to choose the best solvent concentration for Melastoma malabathricum extraction. |
